Joanne M. Foster Laufer

My mother, Joanne M. Laufer nee Foster was a Cadet Nurse at New York Hospital, Cornell University in New York City from 1944-1947. She completed a year at Magill Univ in Montreal before enlisting and moving to NYC at the age of 18. Being from Canada, everyone she knew at that time had enlisted or was involved in the war effort, since Canada was at war long before the US. Her father was from NYC and she had family in New York. Her experiences as a Cadet Nurse changed her life forever with lifelong friends and cherished memories. At 86 she is still going strong and still lives in the New York area. Congresswoman Lowey is her representative in Washington who thankfully once again sponsored legislation this year to obtain veteran status & recognition for the Corps.
